So thought would risk cutting the grass and then inspecting the bees, I'm not about to start cutting the grass in my bee suit to avoid that next sting! I was going ok until I felt some movement by my ear, getting closer to going into my ear, thinking quick i stuck my finger in my ear and retreated to the bathroom to get it out of my hair, sure enough there she was on my ear, that was close, I've had an ant in my ear, but a bee!!! Grass was finished without further event.
Hive inspection went well, think a few weeks from now I will be harvesting my first honey :-), one young lady did manage to sting my right thumb through my marigolds, no will see if I am allergic to bee stings! This time its my right thumb so I will be useless if it swells up like last time!!
So what to do with the rest of the day, the choices are to make a candle out of
this bees wax I have collected or some more work
on that skep I started what must be ages ago!
